Bilang bahagi ng direktiba ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos na siguruhin ang mas patas na oportunidad sa edukasyon, inilunsad ng Department of Education (DepEd) ang Bayang Bumabasa Initiative (BBI).

Sa ilalim ng programa, ang bawat napiling paaralan ay makatatanggap ng hanggang P1 milyon na pondo para magpatupad ng mga reading program na nakaayon sa lokal na konteksto ng kanilang komunidad.

Natukoy na natin sila.
Alam natin kung saan pinakamalalim ang pangangailangan.
At sa likod ng bawat dilaw na tuldok ay mga batang naghihintay ng mas malalim na suporta.

Bukas, sa National Literacy Conference, sisimulan natin ang pagtugon. Aabutin natin sila. 📚✨

Sa Bayang Bumabasa Initiative, kikilos tayo para sa bawat batang Pilipino. 👧🧒
